Panasonic Lumix G9 Mark II PRO

Om-1 mki, 40-150 f2.8

Fortunately the lens seems fine (pan leica 12-60mm).

Or should I upgrade…..

This telephoto zoom lens remains a high-performing mid-range telephoto zoom lens within M43 system. It is often compared to the Olympus or Panasonic 40–150 mm f/4–5.6 models, as well as the Panasonic 45–200 mm f/4–5.6. I chose it for its internal zoom mechanism (which doesn’t extend any further), its optical quality, its light weight and its compact size (90 mm), which makes it compatible with Olympus Pen cameras. Here are some recent photos taken either with my Olympus Pen E-P7 (photo series 1) or OM3 (photo series 2). Bonus: the lens is really cheap second-hand.

Hey folks! I'm looking for some sage advice from the pros in this community. I have recently gotten back into photography after letting my trusty Rebel T5i collect dust for years. It was gift from a family member while I was in highschool, but life got in the way and I ended up letting go of the hobby. Fast forward over a decade and I've found myself bringing my camera along on my adventures. I'm quickly falling back in love with this art form and am considering investing my now grown-up money into my gear.

I imagine it would be helpful to have some context for the kind of photography I'm interested in. My buddies and I load up our motorcycles into trailers and tour the country exploring national parks and bucket-list cities. Wildlife, landscape, and action sports photography have been my primary subjects.

After GoPro announced their upcoming Mission 1 ILS, my eyes were opened to the MFT/M43 format and am considering the OM-1 as a potential replacement. The portability and "affordability" of the format is a big selling point. I'd love to hear your pros and cons.

I have been looking at the Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS STM as a potential telephoto for my current set-up instead of replacing everything. A poor craftsman blames his tools, so I'm curious as to whether or not you guys even recommend upgrading. It would be nice to have a modern camera that uses modern batteries, micro SD, modern tech and features, etc. I would also like a more portable and rugged platform.

Lenses I own:

• Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 STM
  • I understand why they call it a "nifty-fifty"; I absolutely love this lens. If I end up replacing my camera body, I would also need to replace this lens with a comparable model.
• Canon EF-S 10-18mm f/4.5-5.6 IS STM
  • A cheap and crispy ultra-wide. I like this lens but it hasn't seen much use as of late.

Lenses I'd "need":

• 50mm "nifty-fifty" equivalent for the new camera body
• A convinient grab-and-go zoom lens for street photography
• An ultrawide for landscape
• A telephoto fo landscape and action sports

What kinds of subjects do you intend to shoot?

• Backpacking / Hiking subjects (i.e. wildlife, landscape)
• Travel subjects (i.e. architecture, street photography)
• Action sports (specifically, motorcycles. Lacking a telephoto has been an issue. It would be nice to not have to stand in the road when photographing my fellow riders lmao)Thank you all in advance for your input, let me know if there's any further info you'd need!

Perfect EDC setup ✅

I really like the way it renders the colours. It gives me the vibes of my old film cameras.

This is one of my favourites lenses. The images are straight of the camera. The lack of perfection reminds me of the old cameras.

The Viltrox account on RedNote (Xiaohongshu) announced that their new M43 lenses will be revealed at 9AM on July 23rd (local time). The preorder will also start then. Based on the previous rumors, they should be AF 25mm F1.7 Air and AF 35mm F1.7 Air.

Enjoying a bit of summer holidays to do two of my favorite things, ride a bicycle and taking pictures. Photographed with an Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark III paired with Panasonic Lumix 12-32 mm f/3.5-5.6 and Olympus 40-150 mm f/4-5.6.

Hope you enjoy them. Feedback is welcome, if constructive :)

For my GAS I want the 40-150 2.8 with TC but it is a pretty penny for a hobby :/

I have been on this system for the past 2 years and absolutely love it. These are my favorite photos from the past year. Looking to try out macro next. Would love to hear some feedback on these.
